I wonder if they will get promoted? 🤣 ...or relegated?! And this is a mindshift/challenge. Its easy to give time for projects when there's no jeopardy and it doesnt really matter *too* much one way or the other if you win every game or lose every game...everyone is coming back again next season. Even youth football has promotion and relegation, without it you might as well just arrange a bunch of friendlies and not even bother recording the scores. Guessing Kev doesn't miss many home games if any at Sac, done one at Town so far this season......Nine left, maybe one more at a push, don't blame him really what's on offer is shite. |

Just looked at their season ticket prices!!! £227 behind the goal. £350 to £600 down one side, and £475 up to £800 down the other side. Seems sort of comparable to the pricing we had before everything got simplified (goes higher at the high end, but there's full spectrum of pricing if you go and sit elsewhere to make it accessible). |

Just looked at their season ticket prices!!! It's also relative. A quick google The average wage in the US is $77,463 The average UK wage is $53,985 So in the US you can charge more |

KN's other team are going great guns in the USL Championship with 2 wins & 2 draws from their four opening fixtures, a late winner at home this morning from sub Ricketts sees them stay joint top of the table.......If Town can start an unbeaten run then Mr Nagle (& many others) will be doubly happy, lets us hope.

It'll definitely be a while given it was relaunched as a 12-15,000 seater vision a couple of years back, once it became clear Sacramento couldnt get an expansion slot in MLS. |

Pure speculation but is there any possibility that Kevin was looking for a quick win with us ("3 year plan"), sell, and invest the earnings into the bigger plan at Sacramento?
He's shown immense naivety with us and it wouldn't surprise me if he underestimated the ease of gaining promotion (and not from League One!).

Best man to ask would be CD with one foot in each camp......3pm on May 4th a lot of previous unanswered questions will be asked again regardless of where we end up, we pray not L1. |

I was working nights the other week. So I was able to watch their game the YouTube.
Such a shame there is no package here like that for footy fans.

You start a season with that squad then get rid of literally the only manager that can get a tune out of them then who else can he blame? Disgraceful season from top to bottom and his glaring mistakes will cost him millions and millions. No sympathy for the guy. Brought in a car salesman to oversee the playing squad who pissed all the budget on unfit, poor championship players. They all should hang their heads in shame. Not fit to run a real football club. |

Double delight for Kev & Dave with Sac winning 2-0 away at Colorado Springs earlier today, a result which keeps them top of the table......Both will be hoping for more of the same over the next four weekends.

Yes. Especially with our Kings NBA club being frustrating at the moment. I’m sure he wouldn’t admit this, but I know for me I’d trade wins for BOTH right now for a couple more Town wins. No question. But hopefully both can happen and both keep winning. |

Huge home game tonight in the last 16 of the US Open cup against local MLS rivals San Jose Earthquakes (3am UK), expecting a near sell out I'm sure fellow Town fans Kev & Dave will be in attendance........Who won the trip to Sacramento? Maybe a visit for the Quarter final & a day of wine tasting in Napa valley on the cards, sounds great to me.

I saw San Jose Earthquakes against Houston Hurricane in the old Astrodome soon after I moved over there in April 1978. Interesting to see that SJE are still going!

But when San Jose goes along with the rest of Silicon Vallley it’s going to be spectacular. |
